00:00Earth experiencing abnormally short days in July and August

00:04International media reports indicate that Earth is experiencing several unusually short days in July and August this year.

00:11Notably, July 9 recorded one of the shortest days in Earth's history.

00:16Further rapid rotations are anticipated on July 22 and August 5.

00:20These are brief variations, ranging from 1.3 to 1.6 milliseconds, which are imperceptible to humans.

00:27Scientists suggest that the Moon's current orbital position is subtly accelerating Earth's rotation, a typical day.

00:33The time it takes for Earth to complete one rotation on its axis is approximately 86,400 seconds.

00:40However, factors such as the gravitational forces from the Moon and the Sun, geological activity on Earth's surface,

00:47and changes in wind patterns and ocean currents can influence Earth's rotational speed, according to foreign reports.

00:53These three dates are expected to be among the shortest days ever recorded.

00:58Duncan Agnew, a geophysicist at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography,

01:03stated that while this phenomenon is scientifically significant, it does not pose a risk of disaster.
